VViViD Black True R Carbon Fiber Vinyl Wrap Roll with Air Release Technology (1.5ft x 5ft)

good quality. I installed it by myself but you have to be patient. my patience has ran out because of the air bubbles were bad. I removed it several times and put it back again. Also, the adhesive is strong and hard to remove if you make a mistake. My only advice is that you should have someone to install it with and the weather is not hot because the adhesive sticks very strong. What I did with the air bubbles was to use a cutter to remove all the air bubbles so that the air inside disappears. But there should only be small holes so that the air comes out. So far the quality is good. The only problem is that the vinyl scratches easily but that's okay because I just put wax on it so that the small holes I drilled to get the bubbles out and the scratches are not obvious.

I've never installed vinyl wrap before. I've done my share of model airplane decals and Lego stickers, but this is different. It went really well. The stuff is an ideal thickness, in my opinion, and the carbon fiber print looks fantastic. It has a very realistic hologram effect that matches the real thing about as good as I could've hoped. It really dressed up my gaudy bike plastics well. Other reviews mentioned using a little heat for the bendy bits, and that advice is spot on. It only takes a little, though, before it becomes really soft and stretchy, so go slow. I used a heat gun on low and a few waving passes is all it needed to help me get a few ripples worked out. Where it stretches the pattern looks even more convincingly real. If you aren't working on a hot surface the adhesive is repositionable. It's a bit of a challenge to deal with the spring effect of the roll, but for smaller pieces I was able to peel it most of the way off the backing and press it back down, which served to flatten it. It's mostly the backing paper that's coiled, and flattening the roll out actually introduces ripples in the vinyl. I needed to remove those before cutting. Great product, assuming it stays stuck for a reasonable length of time. So far I'm very happy.

Great quality vinyl. I used it to blackout chrome pieces [around doors & front fender = (2) 12"x5' rolls, hood & trunk badges = leftover scraps] on my '22 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport. Material is very durable, easy to work with a long curves. Using heat gun helps. Used a plastic scraper & tools to smooth & vigorous rubbing to get into detail, crevices. I was able to warm it, lay it down, remove it & repeat w/o it tearing or loosing adhesion. Just use care, applying too much heat in one spot will cause vinyl to melt, lose elasticity or distort the carbon design turning it solid black. Bought 1, then 2 more rolls. Will definitely buy more.

1st time working with wrap and it's definitely not a professional quality install....but it looks pretty darn good from a few feet away. I had to do a lot of repositioning and when all was done it was stuck down really well. I was able to work out little bubbles with the squeegee. I did crease it in a few small spots and I royally screwed up wrapping over the edge near the windshield....but otherwise it turned out pretty good. 4X5 feet of material was perfect for the hood and I had some little pieces leftover that I put on the door handles. I did use a heat gun on the edge when wrapping it around the backside, that seemed to help a little. Otherwise just scissors, a knife, and a squeegee. I used magnifying glasses for trimming the door handles and a super sharp pointy knife....kinda scary initially but after a bit putting the knife on it wasn't too bad. It cost 30 bucks and was totally worth it, how long it lasts remains to be seen but it made the car look a lot different (you see white model 3's like....everywhere right?) Might have to wrap something on the wife's car now LOL!

We have a 1965 Brunswick pool table with ball return. Needless to say, it has seen better days. We decided we wanted to give it a makeover. My hubby and I discussed it and liked the look of the carbon fiber and thought it would look sharp against the red cloth we chose instead of the standard green. We also found a red pin-striping on Amazon. For the base, we painted it basic black. However one of the unexpected benefits to the carbon fiber vinyl wrap was that it also helped hide those small cracks and defects in the plastic that time and age had put in over the years. I venture to say our baby has never looked so good!!! We highly recommend this product. It is super easy to use and very forgiving letting you adjust and reapply to get it lined up perfectly (just be careful not to over heat or you can put holes in the vinyl). We hope the pictures help you to see what a wonderful job this product helped us do in rehabbing our pool table and bringing her back to her form glory and beyond.

Update: The company was gracious enough to give me a refund I'm pretty sure this was a bad roll. This wrap is NOT supposed to be sticky but getting it off the backing was insanely hard and the moment it touched my panel it was adhered. (Thi roll at least) was NOT air release. No bubbles would come out. I could not release this from the panel at all. This is not my first wrap and I cannot believe how sticky this wrap was. The texture and design is spot on though. Looks very close to the real thing just a bummer it was so stick and unuseable.

Excellent Quality, Great looking, easy to apply. Using 2 people, one to hold the wrap up until your man comes with his squeegee. So many choices of color and design.

Vvivid deleted my review on their website so I'm posting on Amazon. I can't believe the lengths this company goes to, they can't take critical feedback. This is a review for the Premium +, not XPO. Pros: Overall, Vvivid has stepped up their game from XPO. The colors have depth and sophistication. The matte metallic's have the depth of OEM car paint because of the ghost particles. The air egress technology is a lot better than XPO as well. You can push down on air bubble and gone it goes. The Premium line up can also be wrapped over parking sensors based on other reviews. On my 328i comfort access doors, I could wrap around the door handles, and the tech would work perfectly. On XPO, this couldn't happen, not sure but this might be a Vvivid exclusive? Lastly, Vvivid's vinyl is a bit more brittle making it easier to cut after you've applied. They have Avery beat there. That's where the pro's end. Where Vvivid really loses out is in the installation. It's a horrible process. The initial tack is too strong for the installer to glass out. I found myself redoing each section that I had already covered and squeegee'ed. If you watch CK Wraps on Youtube, ( a big Vvivid endorser whose probably sponsored by them) he also has this issue. You'll see him go over again and again the same spots to get glass because the tack is so strong. I also bought a tack reducer to no avail. The tack reducer works, but you are still redoing area's you've already finished. It's a frustrating process, I haven't had this experience using Avery, 3M is a bit similar, but I don't remember the tack as strong as Vvivid's. I've also never had to use a heat gun as much as I have on Vvivid's. I had Avery Dennison car previously. It went on like a dream. Pressure sensitive adhesive and far more stretch capacity than Vvivid. VVivid's carbon fiber tore when I tried glass it out (Others have reviewed the same on this very site as well). I spent around ~$400 in total to wrap my 3 series. I regret taking down the Avery Dennison vinyl as I wasted ~ 25ft on just the hood itself. Needless to say, I wouldn't recommend it. If you have lots of time on your hands and don't want to pay a premium go Vvivid. They've got good colors, but you'll stress out so much on the installation. Other professional installers in my area have said the same. I'm taking my money back to Avery. Also, after deleting my review before letting me send them my order #'s was bad form and a slap in the face to a customer. I don't see why I'd buy from them again.
